Hello,

I have create a solution under Servoy Developer.

I would like now create a simple client and deploy it on a Mac OS/X and lunch a server on a Windows XP.

Actually I just found how make a runtime with the plugin in Servoy but I don’t want a runtime, but just a smart client who acces to data by a server on another computer.

How can I do that? Where I could find documentation?

Kind regards,

First you need to have your Servoy server running.  
Then you open a webbrowser on the machine you want to run Servoy client on.  
Now point the webbrowser to [http://yourservoyserverip:8080/](http://yourservoyserverip:8080/) and you get a nice page where you can download the Servoy client.  
After launch it will ask you if you want a shortcut onyour desktop. Say yes and you can launch it again by double clicking the icon.

It’s all in the manual as well.

Hope this helps.

Hello,

The creation of client work very well but I have a problem with the creation of shortcut on desktop.

I have to rebuild the client a second time and only after that, It allow to create a shortcut.

Another problem, I want to hide the menubar 'file, “edit” “view” etc…  
I use the plugin menubar but it seem it work only with a windows client.  
On Mac OS/X client the menubar is always visible.

I work on MAC OS/X 10.3  
Servoy R2 2.2.5

Thanks
